John Cristino knocked in Vargas with a sacrifice fly. Kiko Romero was then hit by a pitch, Anthony Hall reached on a catcher’s interference, and Jackson Castillo walked to load the bases. A two-run double by Dillon Lewis drove in Romero and Hall, and Castillo scored on an RBI single by José Colmenares.
